"A few MIPS fixes for 4.19:
- Avoid suboptimal placement of our VDSO when using the legacy mmap
layout, which can prevent statically linked programs that were able
to allocate large amounts of memory using the brk syscall prior to
the introduction of our VDSO from functioning correctly.
- Fix up CONFIG_CMDLINE handling for platforms which ought to ignore
DT arguments but have incorrectly used them & lost other arguments
since v3.16.
- Fix a path in MAINTAINERS to use valid wildcards.
- Fixup a regression from v4.17 in memset() for systems using
CPU_DADDI_WORKAROUNDS."

============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
